American Idol Season 13 Judges Rumors: Keith Urban, Will.i.am, And Will J.Lo's Price Tag Lose Her Spot To Jennifer Hudson?

As "American Idol" season 13 continues to fumble with the judges panel, more rumors and updates have surfaced with names like Keith Urban, will.i.am, Jennifer Lopez, and Jennifer Hudson being dropped.

"I've been involved in the conversations that have been going on," confirms "American Idol" season 13 host Ryan Seacrest according to AmericanIdolNet.

"But we have not yet confirmed who will be on the panel. It will be confirmed soon."

Yahoo! News reports that with a whole new creative team re-vamping "American Idol" for season 13, a three-person judges panel will most likely be put together like the olden days with two male judges and one female.

In addition, both "American Idol" veterans Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Hudson have been rumored to be approached to become one of the judges, but it looks like the two Jennifers are officially competing the same spot.

Reportedly, while Jennifer Lopez made around $15 million per season during her stint on "American Idol," her current salary demands are too steep for the show's climate, with decreasing ratings and constant judges turnover.

But, should Jennifer Lopez come to an agreement, Jennifer Hudson will most likely be out.

Meanwhile, it appears Keith Urban and now will.i.am are likely candidates to become judges for "American Idol" season 13. Kelly Clarkson and Adam Lambert are both reportedly not joining the judges panel.

So, given how the "American Idol" season 13 judges panel seems to be shaping up, do you think this season will save the declining show?
